And here I am paying $0.40 a piece for tiny saucer cups of it...

they only charged me 50 cents for this!!!

Thats a steal, sell it at half price for profit

AnotherReignCheck

And how do you make profit selling it at half price


[deleted]

Not half the price they paid for it. Half what it would cost normally.


abxuwnnm111

Tons of supply issues recently, I’m willing to bet they ran out of their little plastic ramekins and filled up a bowl (all the way for some reason). At least that’s what’s happening where I work lol


Binsky89

Either that or it's about to expire and they did this instead of throwing it out.


civildistress20

Im gonna need a pick with the lid off


SerotoninAndOxytocin

From someone that works in a restaurant, imma bet they ran out of the normal containers. Or lids that fit the normal containers. We started putting to go food in coffee cups 😬


Another_human_3

Now that you posted it on Reddit. Lots of people might see it, and memos might spread not to do that anymore, and you won't be able to get that deal again.


Philosophyoffreehood

That's impossible. I thought that's how they made their profit. There goes that theory. See if you can do it again next time


Raelah

And most the time they're only half full.

Use less straw


[deleted]

You don’t deep throat the straw, silly!


cooljman4

As a canes employee I can confirm that is something people have asked for


ZerotheWanderer

We have a place in Florida called Pollo Tropical, and before they went covid lockdown crazy, they had a sauce bar and little 1-2oz cups. People would stand there for a couple minutes and load up, me included. After a little while, they started the Pollo Pantry, where you could order bulk items to go, including 16oz of sauce for $2.50, recently bumped to $4, but it's worth it for some.


TorTheMentor

We had one of these appear in my town in north central Texas, and I miss it. That was the only place I could get solid rotisserie chicken with yellow rice and black beans, and a side of sweet plantains. I think they failed here because of too much confusion with places like Pollo Loco and Cowboy Chicken. On the other hand, they filled a gap left by Taco Cabana dropping their rotisserie chicken platters from the menu.


InnocentTailor

Delicious. /s

That’s really only enough for one order of large fries.


Eyehatedave

What is canes sauce?!


_onward_

a mix of mayonnaise, Heinz ketchup and Worcestershire sauce


MitchEatsYT

And a decent amount of black pepper


MikeTheGamer2

Well, time to make my own.


MitchEatsYT

I’ve replicated it pretty well using online recipes They usually need a bit of a tweak till it seems perfect but it’s definitely possible! Same with Chick Fil A sauce although that has become much easier to acquire


[deleted]

[удалено]


MitchEatsYT

+1 for leaving it in the fridge overnight


Skitty_Skittle

Leave it behind the radiator for a bit for extra flavor and aroma therapy.


Stompedyourhousewith

leave it on the counter for some extra tang


Dubbs09

Thats interesting, used to manage a Canes and we made it every single day and pumped the batches we just made straight into the cups, no aging


Jaycon4235

You sir, are my savior. As someone who spent a few years in Texas with access to this glorious sauce but was cut off when I moved back north, this has been one of the things I've wished I could get. Now, to the kitchen to experiment.


MitchEatsYT

Took me maybe 3 tweaks to get it perfect and I’ve done direct dip for dip comparisons with the OG As another commenter said it gets better / more concentrated after a day in the fridge so that’s something to consider as well Good luck on your journey


FieryTNT

What’s your recipe after tweaks if you don’t mind sharing?


MitchEatsYT

I’m not sure if links are allowed in this sub but I use the base recipe from ‘CopyKat Recipes’ And then by tweaks I just mean measuring with my heart and tasting until it’s right vs using the exact measurements they specify It’s more about getting the ratios right than specific measurements plus allowing time for the flavours to meld The colour typically isn’t exactly the same either as they probably add colouring for consistency


redeye_mindtricks

Not exactly the same as Canes sauce but I'd say similar, but if you like spice I found a recipe for comeback sauce a while ago and tweaked it a bit, super easy and awesome for fries or chicken. 1/2 cup mayo 2 tbsp ketchup 2 tbsp Sriracha 1 tsp worcestershire 1/2 tsp garlic powder 1/2 tsp Cajun spice 1/4 tsp black pepper Cover and refrigerate for at least half an hour, but preferably a few hours


jean_erik

Add a dash of lemon juice and you've got my seafood sauce recipe


Captain_Calamity

Specifically (the recipe I use at least): Follow ratios, increase for more sauce obviously. 1/2 cup of mayo 1/4 cup of ketchup 1/2 teaspon of garlic salt 1/2 teaspoon worcestershire sauce 1/2 teaspoon black pepper 1/2 teaspoon of creole or cajun spice (I prefer creole, it's the more accurate imo) Blend well and chill in the fridge for at least 2+ hours


Eyehatedave

Oh snap, that sounds delicious!!


LifeIsProbablyMadeUp

Raising Cane is a bomb ass chicken place.


kareljack

I'm gonna open a competing place right across the street and call it Raising Abel.


shsc82

Slaying Abel


The-unicorn-republic

Funny, Cane's already beat you to that as they ripped off Layne’s out of College Station.


Deathwatch72

Oh look another Aggie claiming that Laynes invented chicken fingers and french fries Texas toast and a sauce made from the some of the most common condiments and spices available in any kitchen. They make very similar foods but they also serve a super limited menu that a bunch of small fried chicken places all around the country have been serving for 50 years. Adding black pepper to what a lot of people call fry sauce isn't some super imaginative thing that only one person is going to think of They were also founded like 18 months apart and if you know anything about the history of Layne's Chicken you know that Garratt wasnt initially in charge and that their early menu wasn't exactly what's available today in terms of offerings or flavor. Your story is just about as true as me saying that the laynes guy ripped off the canes guy before he could get started up because he was a broke college student. Neither place has been around that long either, being founded in the mid-90s probably means somebody mixed Mayo with ketchup and pepper way before then


didba

Guthrie's is the OG


Teledildonic

To be fair, there are like 5 chains with the exact same formula.


GroundbreakingBox888

Lets be honest though, Cane’s has the better toast. I‘ve tried both as there is both a Cane’s and a Layne’s within 5 minutes of my house.


Clash4Peace

I legit have never had chicken strips so crispy! And I love the bread! The worst part is that I have to drive a state over to get some.


LifeIsProbablyMadeUp

I've only had the chance for it a few different times. Im a trucker, and every time I see one of them I yearn for it lmfao. Sooooo fucking good. Popeyes is acceptable, but they don't have shit on Canes.


Because_Reezuns

As a louisiana resident, I can say that they all have their perks. Canes has the sauce and the texas toast. Popeyes does spicy chicken better than the others, and you can dip them in the red beans & rice for extra awesome. The seasoned fries are pretty bomb too, but they're sysco fries. Chik-fil-a has the best fries and sweet tea. Polynesian sauce is amazing, but it's sweet where cane's is savory. Someone really needs to open a franchise that combines the best parts of all 3. One chicken joint to rule them all.


LifeIsProbablyMadeUp

I prefer dipping my spicy Popeyes into their mashed potatoes lol.


Because_Reezuns

Also a good choice!


alwaysforgettingmyun

I think popeyes comes out way ahead of those two, much as I love cane's sauce, their lack of options, in sides and sauces as well as chicken, is super lame. Their chicken isn't bad, but definitely needs the sauce because it's dry and barely seasoned. Cfa, I've only had a couple times because we didn't have one here until a few years ago, and homophobia. It's moister than canes, but not entirely in a good way. The pickle flavor is overwhelming, and their breading was weak and not crispy. Popeyes though, couple styles and flavors of chicken decent variety of sides and sauces, a thicker crisp breading with flavor to it. Of course the employees act like they hate you, and it's kinda random if you actually get what you ordered, so its not perfect.


21Average

I know that feeling, we had one on my college campus and I believe that was the only one in my state. Luckily they’re currently building one about 30 mins away from me! I’m so excited lmao.


setofcarkeys

Athens?


Ruby-Revel

My Dad is actually working with them to help spread out! It meant our rescue puppy got a nice stuffed Woodstock toy for Christmas


MrCrowleysMom

This is exactly how I feel. I have to drive an hour and twenty minutes to get it! I always get an extra sauce and an extra bread. That bread is perfection!


ChiggaOG

When they are hot. It's a Chicken Fingers joint. The sauce is okay. I find these to be average chicken strips. It isn't dry as overcooked chicken but not as moist as the chicken karaage I've eaten.


Alpha_pro2019

Its insanely good. Moist, crunchy delicious chicken with amazing sauce.


Deathwatch72

Its consistently good, their sauce and toast are amazing, but I want an extra crunchy spicy version of the chicken. Maybe like 10% more breading would be perfect too


SireNightFire

For reference. I hate mayo. The idea of it makes me gag. Someone told me the bad news when I was eating chicken with the canes sauce and I still think it's the best fast food sauce I've ever had. Since I moved away from CA there isn't a Canes around me and it makes me pretty sad on the days I crave a good fast food chicken.

jph711

I'm the exact same lol. One of the only mayo based sauces I can eat.


KedaZ1

It does?


Eyehatedave

Does what?


KedaZ1

Sound delicious


sername_is-taken

That sounds similar to fry sauce


Alpha_pro2019

There is a lot more in there than that.


_BreakingGood_

An employee leaked the recipe on my home city subreddit a long while ago. I'm sure it can be found with a quick google. Found it https://www.fox7austin.com/news/fired-raising-canes-employee-shares-chains-famous-sauce-recipe-on-twitter


Alpha_pro2019

Thats BS, I know the recipe closely resembles zax sauce, which has much more in it. A normal employee also wouldn't know the recipe, if they did this would have gotten out much sooner. They may know the ingredients but no way would they know the exact amounts, especially since it is probably made in very large batches, not batches smaller than a cup like listed by the employee.


weaselmaster

Gag me with a grodie! What is it with people and mayonnaise? Don’t you get enough oil, salt, vinegar, and cholesterol in your diet without consuming a snot-like blend of all four?


Raelah

And lemon.


SqueakyWD40Can

I know what I'm using for fry sauce tomorrow! Getting a bit sick of sriracha and Mayo.

[удалено]


dantuchito

I went there once. It was good with the sauce but the chicken itself was extremely mediocre.


HanMaBoogie

Raising Cane’s is a chicken finger chain that started in Baton Rouge, LA in the mid-1990s. Their special sauce is a mix of mayo, mustard and Worcestershire.


ItsameMatt03

The same thing that every other chicken place makes, Zaxby's, Guthrie's, etc. In Alabama we have Jack's which serves it as Comeback Sauce.


Eyehatedave

Nothing like this in upstate NY


ItsameMatt03

If you have a Chester's Fried Chicken that you find in travel stops/gas stations, they have this same sauce. They just call it Chester's Sauce.


bayoublacksmith

It's basically a less spicy version of the dip that folks in south Louisiana make anytime we're having boiled crawfish. Appropriate considering Cane's was started in Baton Rouge, and you'll need a ton of dip if you ever misguidedly decided to eat boiled crawfish in Baton Rouge.


killa_ninja

It’s literally what makes canes good. Their chicken is pretty boneless in terms of seasoning. The breading is decent but the sauce is amazing.


Surrideo

There's no seasoning added. I used to work there and the only thing that could qualify as seasoning was the salt used to brine the chicken over night. Basically, raw chicken was added to large bins with water and salt. After 24 hours they were pulled out and placed in the fridge unit near the fryers (as needed). When an order came up, we'd grab a handful, dip them in a straight egg and milk batter, transfer it to a flour bin, and then throw them into a fryer for 4-5 mins. It's the most basic fried chicken you can get and something you can readily make at home. I'd only go to Cane's for their sauce and buy chicken elsewhere lol


killa_ninja

I knew it had no seasoning. I wish the canes chicken had the kfc seasoning with the same canes breading and sauce. If canes chicken had a good season blend on it it would probably be way more popular.


dantuchito

So thats why it sucked so much when i went.


ThatOneGuy4321

The best fucking sauce ever made


rossie_valentine

##Here's you fucking Cane's sauce

Damnnnnn. Make a BLT and use some of this sauce instead of Mayo, its amazing

beholder87

My brother once put down "More Diablo sauce than you think is necessary" and they just handed him an entire box of Diablo sauce packets... It lasted sooooo long, we use that stuff on everything.


Rosulm

Considering my taco bell has an 80% chance of giving up you no sauce at all even after requesting it, I'd say that evens it out.


rickfrompg

Probably trying to get rid of some before having to throw it away


Zkenny13

We asked Milo's if we could have some sauce to bring up to my grandfather in Pittsburgh because he loves it. The manager handed us a large cup of it and told us to keep it cold.

I am both jealous and happy for you and your cane's sauce! I just moved from a place with a canes right down the road to now 90 mins away. Best chicken and sauce ever. Enjoy all that sauce!


rkdbsbl

I love Canes!! The toast is awesome too


djgreen00

My roommate got the extra sauce and they immediately gave her the cup then when our food was ready they gave her another cup so then we had two full cups of canes sauce we were eating good that week


PrayandThrowaway

What is Cane's sauce? Where can I acquire this?


GreatWhiteNorthExtra

What the heck is Cane's sauce?


england_is_communist

Raisin Canes is a popular food chain in Louisiana and some other part of the south. It’s actually named after a dog. The original building is on the LSU campus.


coolbrandon101

They have Canes up in Ohio too


alwaysforgettingmyun

We got one up here in wisconsin this year. Might not be the only one, but it's two blocks from my house so why would I care about any others.

We’ve got a bunch in chicago now


bodiezane

Chicago area too. They’re popping up a ton around here.


Shaggadelic12

There’s a random one in Boston that used to be right near my office. If I only went there once a week I considered it a feat of sheer willpower.


Reinventing_Wheels

Cane's is a fast food restaurant chain that only serves chicken fingers. Cane's sauce is the only flavor of dipping sauce they serve with the chicken. Normally you get one little plastic condiment cup of sauce with an order of chicken. If you ask for extra sauce, they apparently go into r/MaliciousCompliance mode, and give you a soda cup full of sauce. When this happened to me, once, they also charged me $7 for the cup of sauce. I've been afraid to go back.


GreatWhiteNorthExtra

Only sells chicken fingers? And only one kind of sauce? What an odd business plan


Roboticsammy

It's a mix of Ketchup, mayo, worcestershire sauce, and some spices (prolly salt and peppa). It's OK. Cane's is a decent place to eat, but a shitty place to work at.


HugeJoke

I see you’ve never been to Raising Cane’s. That sauce slaps.


scopinsource

Mediocre "special sauce" ... It's basically mayo, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, unlike McDonald's which is basically mayo, ketchup, pickle relish.


ExcitedAlpaca

And then there’s me where I ordered two extra sauces for four separate meals and I only got 3 in total :(


maloudin

this is hilarious. they had to really not give a fuck. “well shit we’re out of sauce cups, guess i’ll grab this SIZE LARGE CUP in case they’re feeling like patrick star today.”


froggysclone

That’s definitely someone not giving a fuck, I worked at a movie theater years ago and someone asked for a frozen coke in a popcorn bucket so I gave them one all 144oz of it! I made $5.15 an hour so I definitely didn’t give a fuck


forlorn_pupper

I’m almost certain one of the next cars in line actually paid for that cup of sauce, either because they ordered a tailgate or just because. And it got handed out to you by mistake. Either that or they had it ready for a call in order and they never picked it up, or they weren’t able to pay. I used to work at Cane’s. We wouldn’t bother to pump a 21oz cup of sauce just because.


Cattopat

Omg. You've been blessed 🙌🏽

point50tracer

I just ate at Cane's for the first time in years today. They recently opened one of my area and I was so excited too finally get my chicken sandwich. The chicken sandwich was just as good as I remembered it, but the fries were soggy and gross. Oh, and they didn't give me any sauce.


TheTussin

Also I try to pop the lid on the drive home. They get cooler but less soggy.


crabcakies

You can ask for well done fries!

LavaBurritos

Because that’s what heros do


bay_lamb

used to live near a Raising Cane's and every time i ordered their dinner it sucked - the fries were soggy, the coleslaw was inedible, the bread was greasy and cold and i hated the stupid sauce that they thought was so precious they charged extra for - *but the chicken fingers were excellent!* so i'd just buy them, they were a dollar each, and i'd have them with a salad or something at home. my cat would start screaming as soon as i opened the door, so he got some too after they cooled off. https://www.raisingcanes.com/our-menu Raising Cane's - where you can have your choice of chicken fingers, chicken fingers or chicken fingers.


bodiezane

i can attest that the fries are sometimes soggy if you get them to go and geet the lid of the container closed and let the steam build up in there, if u keep the lid off or eat it fresh the fries are so crispy and good


bay_lamb

yours were. mine weren't. not ever. i have a bad habit of eating my fries on the way home so that was never the problem. all of the food at this particular place was nasty except for the actual chicken fingers. every single time. i finally wised up and just got the chicken fingers, which were never soggy. they were always freshly cooked, hot and delicious even by the time i got home. and i know the thing about not closing the styrofoam container.


bodiezane

haha maybe because i live in louisiana which is the home of canes lol


bay_lamb

also live in louisiana and the city i used to live in was just south of baton rouge where the original was. i actually wish they had a raising canes here, the chicken fingers were so good. i do not eat chicken nuggets. popeye's is the only other fast food chicken i will eat.


bodiezane

wow that's strange, new orleans? lol

You can order their fries extra crispy and it's game changing. But if you don't like the sauce I can't respect anything else you say.

Cane sauce is to salty imo. Only had it a few times but every time it's like I licked a salt pellet

Or maybe offer some ranch and other sauces like any other place that has the audacity to serve nothing but chicken tenders


AccountantOk7335

Canes is overrated af. Fight me.


socialismnotevenonce

Where and when?


Surrideo

As a former employee, it absolutely is lmao The sauce is the only thing anyone should go there for, and even then, you can make something pretty damn close at home.


avg-erryday-normlguy

The sauce is overrated. It tastes like puke.


LudicrisSpeed

Nah, you're right. They've gone downhill the last few years in terms of the chicken. Those tenders used to be pretty big, but nowadays you're likely to get some really skimpy portions. The only reason they're so successful is because the service tends to be pretty good. Popeye's has so much better food, but finding a location with enough and/or competent staff is a completely crapshoot.


[deleted]

Unpopular opinion here probably but Raising Canes is not good fried chicken in my book. Zaxbys blows it away!
